    3 good men

    My duster is running again, and it's all thanks to Greg from berkeley, jomoper, and Big D from South San Jose, after going thru three different setups I got it right last night and drove the car, smooth as can be, and I have to give some credit where credit is definitely due. I have enough parts...

    what is wrong with this thing? please help..

    I drove it to auto zone to buy a tach so I could do my cam swap this weekend. I got back home, installed it. When I started the car back up, there was a very strong racket coming from the block, like there was no oil in the top end. I hear a similar sound occasionally, and I hear lifter noise at...

    New Duster 2

    So, I have had the duster at home for about 10 days, bought it from a mechanic, and the guy had 8 quarts of oil in it. It was making some pretty scary clacking sounds deep inside, I got worried! I changed it, was shocked at how much was in there. Put in about 4 1/2 quarts of VR1 and the clacking...

    New Duster

    So, it's been a minute since I've posted, as many of you may remember I had to sell my dart to keep the family fed, things were rough this year and I had to make it happen, so I did what I had to do. It would tear a hole in me every time I'd turn on speed channel, or when I'd be out and about...

    looking for a 67-72 dart

    If any of you have a 67-72 dart available for a pro street project please let me know. I'd like to find an old race car or unfinished project with tubs or spring relo already done.

    so I hard to make the hard choice, and I sold the dart. I got kids. No work since Jan 15. So anyway, I've been looking on craigslist and everywhere else I can think of to find another dart to start. I only have 500 left out of several thousand, that's what it took to get us out of the hole. So...

    six pack hood on a 68 cuda?

    Do you guys think a six pack scoop would look better than an early hemi scoop on my cuda? I have a 68 fastback and a s/s hemi scoop would be a bit too big for me, plus I drive it rain or shine, so...The early hemi style is only 2 1/2 inches, though. With a high rise, nos plate and air cleaner I...

    no code

    How can one determine from the coding what rear end came in this 74 swinger? It came with 318/two barrel/904 trans. I got the book out and my book stops at 1969 and it wasn't helping me anyway. I got blessed with a dart that had no a/c, but I still gotta get rid of all the smog stuff in there...

    :sad: Yep, there are times when you have to look at the whole picture, and the project I was buying was making things a bit rough at home and on payday. I am willing to make some sacrifices for my passion, my mopars, but not when anyone else has to sacrifice, too. So, I adjusted my sights, made...
